Although Shangguan Wanning and Xiao Zhenting reached an agreement in private, Xiao Zhenting was moody and she was not sure what choice he would make at the critical moment.
What's more, Ling Ruiying is still present now.
"Your Majesty, I dare not hide it. These two South China Sea black pearls..." Xiao Zhenting's mouth curled up an evil smile, and he looked at Shangguan Wanning from the corner of his eyes.
"Prince..." Ling Zhiru grabbed Xiao Zhenting's clothes tightly and placed all hope on him.
"After Zhiru entered the door, she said she liked these two pearls, so Erchen gave her the gift to her..."
As soon as these words were said, they were filled with sighs.
Ling Zhi's face was ashamed. She kept slapping Xiao Zhenting's legs and screaming, "Prince, why do you want to harm me...I am your wife..."
Xiao Zhenting did not push Ling Zhiru away, but just looked down at her, with regret and helplessness on his face.
"Zhiru, I want to treat you well, but I really didn't expect that you would do such a crazy thing because of jealousy. You...hey!"
Ling Zhiru felt cold all over, and she knelt on the ground and covered her face and cried.
The emperor's face changed slightly, and he glanced at the queen meaningfully.
"So, there is no doubt about the matter. The murderer of the miscarriage of the King of Qin who really harmed the princess was the Princess of Qin, and it had nothing to do with Mrs. Shangguan."
The emperor said, turning his gaze to Ling Zhiru. "Do you know, are you committing a death sentence?"
Ling Zhiru trembled all over and became panicked.
She never felt that death was so close to her.
Ling Zhiru adjusted her posture and knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Your Majesty, I'm just confused for a moment. Please give me kindness..." Ling Zhiru once again placed her hope on her husband, "Prince, please, beg the emperor for me, I will never dare to do it again...
…”
Xiao Zhenting lowered his head, his expression full of regret.
"Zhiru, I want to help you too, but... if I just harm my child, I can forgive you. But... don't go, and I will still have to be bleeding all over the family of Doctor Wang and Doctor Xiao. These... should be done again
How about it?"
Ling Zhiru never expected that the man who was sleeping with her not only did not stand up to protect her in the most difficult time, but also kicked her at a critical moment.
"What does the queen think about this?" The emperor looked at the queen with a smile.
At this time, the queen's palm was covered with sweat. She tried her best to endure it and try her best to maintain solemnity and majesty.
"Emperor, my mother's family has a cruel and ruthless girl, and I am ashamed. I dare not shelter her from any kindness. I ask the emperor to handle it according to the law of the country and punish it severely. If someone in my mother's family pleads for mercy,
Should be punished for the same crime.”
"ah!"
Ling Zhiru was so scared that she fell to the ground, trembling all over.
The queen's last words blocked her only way to survive.
"Empress..." Ling Zhiru never expected that the queen and empress dowager who loved her all the time had only chosen Mingzhe to protect herself.
She was desperate and her mind was blank.
"Come." The emperor shouted and called the guards, "Take the Princess Qin down and put them in the heavenly prison, and wait for the detention."
"Your Majesty, please save me..."
As Ling Zhiru's voice became farther and farther away, Shangguan Wanning's thoughts became more and more chaotic.
"The emperor is very careful and the daughter of the minister thanks his father."
Shangguan Wanning knelt down, and the emperor looked at her and showed a comfortable smile.
"Shangguan Aiqing is such a blessing. You can have a well-behaved, sensible and smart daughter like you. You have the courage and strategy. If you are a man, you will be able to serve the country. What a pity."
"Emperor, even if the minister is a daughter, as long as he cares about the country and the country, he can still contribute to the court."
The emperor was stunned and then burst into laughter.
"Okay, okay, well said. Now that your mother's innocence has been confirmed, I will immediately issue an order to release everyone in the Shangguan family. Shangguan Yueguan will restore his post."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Get out."
The emperor waved his hand and everyone retreated, and Shangguan Wanning breathed a sigh of relief.
"Princess," Xiao Jian walked over and bowed deeply to Shangguan Wanning, "Thank you for your life-saving grace."
"Doctor Xiao, I want to thank you..."
Xiao Jian waved his hand and shook his head with a tired look.
After a lifetime of disaster, he was the only one left in the whole family, and he didn't know where to go in the future.
Shangguan Wanning looked at Xiao Jian's shaky figure gradually moving away, and couldn't help feeling a little sad.
She walked forward alone silently. When she reached the corner, a figure flashed by and pulled her into the flowers.
Shangguan Wanning looked up and met Xiao Zhenting's cunning eyes.
"How is it? Are you satisfied with such a result?"
Shangguan Wanning calmed down and quietly pushed away Xiao Zhenting's hand surrounding her waist.
"Of course I'm satisfied. I want to thank the prince for standing up at the critical moment."
"You're welcome, I promised you something, of course I'll do it." Xiao Zhenting curled Shangguan Wanning's chin, gently stroked her fingers across the delicate skin on her cheeks, and her heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate.
"Ning'er, what about you promised me?"
Shangguan Wanning suppressed the disgust in her heart and smiled sweetly.
"When my parents come out of prison safely, you will be able to come to the door openly to propose marriage. Since I promised to marry you, I will not regret it. It's just..."
The two-word twist made Xiao Zhenting frown slightly.
He really doesn't like to hear it.
"Just what?" Xiao Zhenting's tone became cold.
Shangguan Wanning noticed his dissatisfaction and turned his back on the spot, poking Xiao Zhenting's chest with his fingers.
"But, your Princess Qin is now in prison and has not been sentenced to death, or has terminated the engagement with you. So, how do you marry me and come in? I have been saying it for a long time. I am only a wife and will never be a concubine.
.”
Xiao Zhenting approached Shangguan Wanning and whispered: "Don't worry about this, I can tell you, and I can do it."
"Okay, then I'll wait for the prince to come to get a job."
After Shangguan Wanning finished speaking, she pushed Xiao Zhenting away and walked out of the flowers.
A person, not knowing when he stood there, motionless.
Shangguan Wanning felt her whole body stiff, as if she was struck by lightning, and stood there blankly, her heart was as if she was strangled by a knife.
Xiao Zhenting, who followed Shangguan Wanning, saw Mu Jingrui's sharp gaze staring at Shangguan Wanning, gently opened the corner of his mouth and smiled.
"Today, I would like to thank Lord Mu for his protection of Ning'er on the martial arts field of the school. I will send someone to give me rewards."
Xiao Zhenting stretched out his hand and put it on Shangguan Wanning's shoulder and said softly: "Ning'er, let's go, I'll accompany you to the prison to pick up your parents."
